Accessibility Statement

We believe that the internet should be accessible to everyone, and we are actively working to ensure that our website can be used by as many people as possible — regardless of ability. To achieve this, we strive to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 level AA, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines describe how web content can be made more accessible to people with many different types of disabilities. By following them, we aim to ensure that the website is accessible to, among others, people who are blind, have impaired vision, motor difficulties, cognitive disabilities, and more.
 
The website uses several techniques to maintain a high level of accessibility. We use an interface that allows people with specific needs to adapt the website's user interface (UI) to their own preferences. In addition, a technical solution is used that runs in the background and continuously optimizes the website's accessibility.
 
This solution improves the website's HTML code and adapts function and behavior for screen readers (for blind users) as well as keyboard navigation (for users with motor difficulties).

Screen readers and keyboard navigation

Our website uses ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) together with various behavioral adaptations so that users who use screen readers can read, understand, and use the website's features. When a user with a screen reader enters the website, a prompt appears to activate a special mode in order to navigate and use the website effectively. 

Here are some of the most important requirements we support: 

1. Screen reader optimization

 We use a process that analyzes the website's components from top to bottom to maintain compliance even when the website is updated. In the process, we provide screen readers with meaningful information via ARIA attributes. This may include correct labels for form fields, descriptions of clickable icons (social media, search, shopping cart, etc.), guidance during form validation, and roles for elements such as buttons, menus, and modal dialogs (popup windows).
 
The process also scans the website's images and, when needed, creates descriptive ALT texts (alternative text) using object recognition. It can also extract text embedded in the image with OCR technology (optical character recognition).
 
To activate screen reader optimization, users can press Alt + 1. Users with screen readers also receive automatic notifications to turn on optimization when they enter the website. The adaptations are compatible with common screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack.
 

2. Keyboard navigation optimization

 The process also adjusts the website's HTML and adds features via JavaScript so that the website can be used fully with the keyboard. This includes, among other things:
 
 
navigating with Tab and Shift + Tab
 
 
handling drop-down menus with arrow keys, closing with Esc.
 
 
activating buttons and links with Enter.
 
 
navigating between radio buttons and checkboxes with arrow keys, and selecting with Space or Enter.
 
Users who need keyboard navigation can also access a menu to skip past content ("skip to content") or have it as the first element during keyboard navigation. If popup windows open, focus is automatically moved to these, so that focus does not end up outside the dialog.
 
Users can also use shortcuts such as:
 
 
M (menus)
 
 
H (headings)
 
 
F (forms)
 
 
B (buttons)
 
 
G (graphics/images)
 

Supported user profiles
 

Epilepsy safety profile:
 
Reduces the risk of seizures by removing blinking/flickering animations and risky color combinations.
 
 
Vision impairment profile:
 
Adapts the website for common vision impairments such as impaired vision, tunnel vision, cataracts, glaucoma, etc.
 
 
Cognitive impairment profile:
 
Assistive features to facilitate focus and understanding for people with, for example, autism, dyslexia, stroke (CVA), etc.
 
 
ADHD-friendly profile:
 
Reduces distractions and "noise" to facilitate reading and focus.
 
 
Profile for blind users (screen reader):
 
Makes the website compatible with screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack.
 
 
Keyboard navigation profile (motor):
 
Makes it easier to use the website with Tab/Shift+Tab and Enter as well as the shortcuts M, H, F, B, and G.
 

Additional adaptations for UI, design, and readability
 

Fonts – change size, type, spacing, alignment, line spacing, etc.
 
 
Colors – choose contrast mode such as light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. It is also possible to switch color schemes for headings, text, and backgrounds with several options.
 
 
Animations – stop animations (including video, GIFs, and CSS effects) to reduce risks for epilepsy-sensitive users.
 
 
Content highlighting – emphasize important elements such as links and headings, or mark only elements that are in focus/under the mouse pointer.
 
 
Sound off – turn off all sound on the website immediately (can help users with hearing aids that are affected by sound that plays automatically).
 
 
Support for cognitive difficulties – search function connected to Wikipedia and Wiktionary that can help explain concepts, abbreviations, slang, etc.
 
 
More features – including changing the cursor's color and size, print mode, virtual keyboard, and additional aids.

 
How accessible is the website?

We are continuously working to improve accessibility on the website. We are aware that parts of the website may have shortcomings in their accessibility and may therefore be partially compliant with the accessibility law.

Content that is not accessible

Non-organic components, such as embedded frame components and third-party plugins: The website may contain components from third-party providers, for example chat functions and cookie management. These may in some cases lack full accessibility adaptation, which can affect the experience for users with disabilities. These components are managed by external providers and may in certain cases be outside our direct control.
 
Links to PDF documents and other files: The website may lack certain accessibility regarding how users can access documents, as they may lack sufficient information about format and access. In some of these documents, the content may also not yet be fully accessibility-adapted. Specifically, this website contains shortcomings in example. We continuously work to identify problems and improve our accessibility.
 

How we tested the website

We conduct regular accessibility tests with a tool and compile the results in a report.
 
 Compatibility with assistive technologies and browsers

We strive to support as many browsers and assistive technologies as possible so that users can choose the tools that suit them best, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked to support the largest systems that together account for over 95% of the market, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera, and Microsoft Edge. We also support screen readers such as JAWS and NVDA for both Windows and Mac users.

Remarks, comments, and feedback

Despite our efforts, there may be pages or parts of the website that are not yet fully accessible, that are being improved, or where a sufficient technical solution is lacking. We continuously improve accessibility by adding, updating, and further developing features, and by adopting new technologies in line with technological progress.
